“Melting biscuits” can refer to a type of cookie that has a tender, crumbly texture and a rich, buttery flavor. These biscuits are called “melting” because they literally melt in your mouth due to their delicate texture.
To make melting biscuits, you typically start by creaming together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Then, you gradually add flour and any other dry ingredients, such as cornstarch or powdered sugar, until a soft dough forms.
The dough is then shaped into small rounds or fingers and placed on a baking sheet. The biscuits are baked at a low temperature until they are set but not browned. Once cooled, they are often dusted with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
Melting biscuits are a delightful treat to enjoy with a cup of tea or coffee, and their delicate texture and buttery flavor make them a favorite among cookie lovers.
